SPECIAL MASTER

Everyone knows how hotly contested family law matters can be, and everyone knows how stubborn opposing parties can be.  These two variables can be a recipe for costly litigation that can seem unending.  What many people do not know, is there is a solution to this problem.   Whether your case has one main issue that is at impasse or a variety of issues, a Special Master is an excellent resolution to your dispute.  A Special Master acts as a third party neutral that analyses the dispute issue, and makes findings as to the issue/s.  The parties can feel comfortable that a neutral third party analysed their issue/s, and create an opinion/recommendation that can be trusted.  A Special Master can also help you mediate your case once their report is complete.

A Special Master can be used to calculate arrears, determine income available for support, trace finances, evaluate business, determine spousal support, create parenting plans, and much more.  Unlike mediation, there is also a certain level of certainty in working with a Special Master.  If the parties cannot resolve their conflict, the Special Master submits the report to the court.  This provides the court with an in depth analysis of your issue/s to expedite the court’s decision-making process.  

At Blagof Law Firm, we work regularly as a Special Master.  We accept cases regardless of whether the parties are represented by counsel.  Our attention to detail, and our success in the field of family law has prompted judges to recommend and appoint our firm as special master on cases in an effort to help parties avoid trial.  The courts believe in us, and so should you.  Call our office today to discuss your Special Master needs today.
